Mark Pincus, back in October, had announced that it was going to close gaming titles which were old and that Zynga was about to reduce investment in The Ville. “We are sunsetting 13 older games and we’re also significantly reducing our investment in The Ville,” Pincus had noted in a blog post. December 30 saw closure of 2 such games – PetVille and Mafia Wars 2.
